===Questionnaire===

+

*''' What is the most important part of being on the Fedora Board?'''

+

+

The most important part of being on the Fedora Board, to me at least, is the ability to have a say in the core strategic philosophy of Fedora.

+

+

*''' Do you see any needed change(s) for the Fedora Board?'''

+

+

Yes. I believe That the board should be more involved decisions on core changes that affect the end user.

+

+

For example, the decision about the complete redesign of Anaconda should have been looked at a lot more closely than it was. It has caused Fedora 18 to be delayed over and over again due to the amount of bugs that it has. Anaconda in Fedora 18 is both harder to use and is actually less functional than Anaconda in Fedora 17.

+

+

I believe that the board should also be responsible to make sure that communication is improved between all Fedora teams.

+

+

For example, the change to systemd/systemd-logind has affected many package maintainers and upstream developers. Something that worked fine before now no longer works and upstream developers and packagers have had to scramble to make their software work with the recent changes in Fedora 18.

+

+

*''' If elected then what will be your priorities?'''

+

+

To ensure that the boards maintains good strategic goals, transparent philosophies, communication between teams, and ensure overall communication to the end user.

+

+

*''' Why did you choose to be apart of the Fedora Project?'''

+

+

Why not? I have been welcomed with open arms. I joined the Fedora project as a member of the QA team. Even after running Fedora and RHEL as a System Administrator contributing to Fedora has taught me so much that I didn't know before and it has translated in to being a better System Administrator. Fedora has introduced me in to a social circle of extremely intelligent people that I would have not known had I not joined.

+

+

As a System Administrator I have run Fedora servers and keeping up to date with Fedora is important as well, since almost every company I have worked for runs RHEL or CentOS servers.

+

+

*''' What will you be able to accomplish if elected, that you couldn't as an unelected contributor?'''

+

+

As an unelected contributor I felt that my opinion didn't really matter that much. I feel like being elected to the board that my opinion will have a much greater weight than it previously did as a member of the QA or Ambassador teams.

While my job is not related to Fedora ( I am just a part time sysadmin ), I must disclose that my employer is currently the main sponsor of Fedora. Also, I must confess that I was convinced to run for this election by a few people who will recognize themselves.

===Questionnaire===

+

*''' What is the most important part of being on the Fedora Board?'''

+

+

I think the most important part is to not be needed by people to do their work, and yet still be here if they need help, ie the delicate balance etween absent and yet present. People work faster and better when there is no roadblock, and while there is a natural tendency for anybody to wait on "higher authority", this is not ideal for the goals of the Fedora project ( most notably "First" ).

+

+

*''' Do you see any needed change(s) for the Fedora Board?'''

+

+

A needed change, no, I think the system work good enough so far to not need any radical changes. But the fact that almost no one wanted to be candidate for this year election until the last moment is rather strange and should IMHO be looked at, even if I have no idea on where to start or even if that's something that requires a change on the Fedora Board. I must confess that as a contributor and user, I have so far seen no issues with the Board.

+

+

*''' If elected then what will be your priorities?'''

+

+

My priority would be to make sure the project can be sustainable and grow ( even if I do not believe in a infinite contributor growth, sooner or later, we will hit a maximum on this part, and what to do at that moment is IMHO a challenge that we may not have anticipated )

+

+

*''' Why did you choose to be apart of the Fedora Project?'''

+

+

Free software work mainly because people participate, and I always tried to give back to the projects I use and to the free software ecosystem in general, as . I currently use Fedora on my desktop for the innovation who allow me to keep my skills up to date, and because the strict checking of licenses who permit me to trust the software I use day to day. So to me, it was normal to contribute back under various forms, from support in LUGs to package reviews and bug reports or QA for Fedora.

+

+

*''' What will you be able to accomplish if elected, that you couldn't as an unelected contributor?'''

+

+

I will be disappointing, but the answer is likely "not much". I do not think the board hold much power to do something except in very specific areas. The board cannot force volunteers to do any work if no one want to do it. So the only work that would be accomplished if I am elected will be done by others who will have more free time to do it if the board and the project is running fine.

*''' What is the most important part of being on the Fedora Board?'''

+

To breath for Fedora? But seriously - the most important part is to be on the Fedora Board and should be for other folks too - as you could see, we usually have a problem with filling all seats with enough candidates (it's great there are three more people running now). Not running for Board just to be there but to know, that everyone can do it and everyone will be considered by contributors to be elected. Do not worry, run for it!

+

+

*''' Do you see any needed change(s) for the Fedora Board?'''

+

+

Board is opening - that's good sign. Two years ago, meetings were private calls only, now we have public IRC meetings combined with private calls. It would be great, to minimize the "private" part more. It does not go well with our foundations (on the other hand, sometimes we have to...).

+

+

*''' If elected then what will be your priorities?'''

+

+

While reading the elections discussions, we (and me as a Board member) failed in communication - when Mizmo was on Board, she established Board blog, I contributed that times too but after the blog was cancelled, we/I did not try to fix it. This would be my top priority - to start the blog again and to assure that all meeting minutes are published. It looks like boring secretary job but it's important one.

+

+

*''' Why did you choose to be apart of the Fedora Project?'''

+

+

I expect it's "a part" not "apart" ;-)

+

+

For me, my journey to be a part of Fedora Project started years ago, I was RHL 5.x user, then Fedora Core user but one day I just got crazy from some system configuration tool misbehaving. And I quit Fedora immediately instead of fixing the issue. Now after years, I know, it was mistake and another day, a few years after, I was hired by Red Hat to fix system configuration tools. Paradox of life! If I could time travel, I'd choose to be a part of Fedora from the beginning :)

+

+

*''' What will you be able to accomplish if elected, that you couldn't as an unelected contributor?'''

+

+

I hope there are no differences in the terms of what Board and "unelected" contributors could do within the project - and it's the main strength of our

+

community. Active members doing the work should lead the project, period. And Board is more a partner to these efforts. That's what I'd like to see (and it could be accomplished from Board ;-).

+

*''' What is the most important part of being on the Fedora Board?'''

+

+

In my view, Fedora board is managing the Fedora project shaping it and leading it. As being part of the board I would be able to actively engage with such. Then the most important thing is it represent the whole project, whole contributors.So it would be a representation through all parts of the project. Which practically make facilitation to the whole project is feasible.

+

+

*''' Do you see any needed change(s) for the Fedora Board?'''

+

+

Not that major changes. But I would like to see more interconnections/good communication flow between Board and the committees(FAmSCo and

+

FESCo) and contributors.

+

+

*''' If elected then what will be your priorities?'''

+

+

The highest priority is to facilitate the project preserving free culture with in the project and it is diversity. Because as I believe those two factors helped Fedora to grow and sustain. Most important that is where our whole creativity was born and which I believe.

+

+

*''' Why did you choose to be apart of the Fedora Project?'''

+

+

The answer is simple, I believe in Free Culture and fedora is believe in Free Culture too.

+

+

*''' What will you be able to accomplish if elected, that you couldn't as an unelected contributor?'''

+

+

I think what mean here is "why this post". The reason is to represent and facilitate the whole community which is not that much possible being a contributor. I represented fellow FAms in F18 FAmSCo and this is the time to represent whole community being a member of the board. I m willing to take this chance and responsibility.

frequent presenter and helper for the Paris LUG for various distribution during the monthly LUG meeting, and for the various Fedora party organized since 3/4 years

member of the proventester group

serial package reviewer ( 60 since april 2012 ), helped on the Openshift Origin feature as tester and reviewer

founding member, packager representative, board member and secretary for 1 year of another linux distribution project (Mageia), left in April 2012 for private reasons.

packager and community sysadmin for Mandriva/Mageia since 2003, taking care of package like python and puppet, for Fedora since 2010, Linux user since 2002.

Future plans:

I do not have any future plans to present, because to me, the board is here to serve the project, and in practice hold as much power as people who are wanting to do the job give to him. So anything I could or would do could be done without being on the board and so not related to my candidacy. Therefore, my goal is more to listen, help to solve issues for others, and provides guidance and advice based on my experience of community and free software.

Anything else you want to add:

While my job is not related to Fedora ( I am just a part time sysadmin ), I must disclose that my employer is currently the main sponsor of Fedora. Also, I must confess that I was convinced to run for this election by a few people who will recognize themselves.
